Had my car got custom stage 1 remap yesterday which turned out pretty well. Car made 179bhp and 397nm at stock form which was pretty nice. Stage 1 remap the car made 216bhp with 477nm. =) the car only has racingline panel filter.
Wouldnt say 179 is pretty nice as I've seen them doing up to 192 in stock

Results will always differ to engines to dyno results,the fact i made 179 which is close to the on paper figure after 3 years and doing 23k mileage is pretty good.

Diffuser?

I've been looking at rear diffusers. Dont want to change to dual exit exhaust so was looking at the maxton or the RDX diffuser anyone tried either?

Finally managed to replace the mirror.. Nice to see it folding again, just need to code it to fold after one click
And got rid of the rattle from the passenger door :)

put mine in for work under warranty yesterday (or id have never used them) it required all shocks done and some how Arnold Clark managed to order the wrong part but not once, they managed this twice, though now i think about it its three times

Phone call went something like "Mr EddieP i have an update for you on your car the guys have ordered the wrong parts but we have ordered them again but i think its the wrong ones"
Me "Ok....so when do i get my car back and im still not understanding how that is possible but ok"
Her "you should get it tomorrow (now today) morning"

i phoned them this morning for her to tell me they had to go get the parts again...... how is that even possible i know they are shite but they are still a garage who are meant to know something about cars

to make it worse the car i got to use till mine is back is a twingo, slowest thing i have ever driven and my first car was a rover metro M reg

Theres one positive.. When you'll get your car back you will appreciate it much more than before, after driving the Twingo :D

Clearly they can't read part numbers from Seat official or something.

Apparently I went back in time today. Clock in the car is reading an hour slow.

It's set to GPS, and the daylight saving option thing is on as well - the sat nav and traffic reports are both working so GPS is clearly fine, it just seems to have decided it's an hour earlier than it actually is. Odd. Hope it fixes itself.

My dashcam has done the same, noticed the other day that it was an hour slow (even though I had corrected it when BST started) and I corrected it, checked today and it's an hour slow again!

Saw my plaything (Mk3 Cupra with a few knobs on) loaded onto the back of a breakdown down to be carted away to the repairers.

A dipstick in a 5 series didn't noticed that I was stopped and took out my rear passenger wing, bumper, (Milltek) exhaust, etc., etc.

Looks expensive.
